Weila, Waila (McGettigan)
There was an evil woman and she lived in the woods,
weila, weila, waila.
There was an evil woman and she lived in the woods,
down by the river Saile.
And she had a baby three month old, weila, weila, waila.
She had a baby three month old down by the river Saile.
She had a pen knife long and sharp, weila, weila, waila.
She had a pen knife long and sharp, down by the river Saile.
She stuck the pen knife in the baby's heart, weila, weila, waila.
She stuck the pen knife in the baby's heart, down by the river Saile.
There were three lowered knocks come a-knocking on the door,
weila, weila, waila.
Three lowered knocks come a-knocking on the door,
down by the river Saile.
There were two policemen and a special-branch man,
weila, weila, waila.
Three policemen and a special branch-man,
down by the river Saile.
They pulled the rope around her neck, weila, weila, waila.
They pulled the rope around her neck, down by the river Saile.
They pulled the rope and she got hung, weila, weila, waila.
They pulled the rope and she got hung, down by the river Saile.
And that was the end of the woman in the wood, weila, weila, waila.
And that was the end of the baby, too, down by the river Saile.
